The pace at which technology progresses within the motor industry
can be incredibly fast. What may have seemed an almost
insurmountable problem in the late 80s and early 90s and therefore
a major achievement when resolved, would now seem a minor
inconvenience due to the advances made in component technology.
Aston Martin Engine Development thoroughly details the design and
development of Aston Martin engines including the 580X Vantage, the
Virage, and the V8 Coupe. In particular it focusses on the twin
supercharged 32 valve Vantage engine - an engine which set new
standards, being the most powerful production car engine in the
world at the time of its release in 1992. Illustrated with
photographs from that time and including power and torque curves,
this book provides a unique look into a period of Aston's history,
written by one of the key men involved in making it happen. It
gives an insight into life at the AM factory at Newport Pagnell; an
understanding of the benefits of Supercharging at the time of
manufacture; and a historic record of engine design, development
and production that would otherwise have been lost to time.Aston
Martin Engine Development will appeal to Aston Martin owners and
enthusiasts and to anyone else with an interest in engines and
high-performance cars.
